"From the windows they were watching, while we froze down below" A clue! Death & his friends were watching the two lovers while they were freezing in the snow & cast a spell on them. The forces of darkness where upon them. That's why they separated & that's why Chris sings 'Strawberry Swing' to break the spell, to remember the good times. The tender moments together.
"There was snow, white snow". HINT! HINT! The story is not set in the real world. There would be no need to mention that the snow was white if the story was set in the real world.
I think coldplay songs have a different meaning to every listener. The actual literal meaning would make no sense, but it's the emotion put into it. So my question to you is, How does it make you feel and can you relate to the melody and tempo? Once you figure that out you have your answer.
I really really really dislike, loath or even hate coldplay most of the time, but they have a few good songs, and this is one of them (the other is yellow of course :))
@stilltormentin LOL My bad, shut up. :P Across the Universe. Wow I was really tired when I wrote that! They should make a movie around this album or at least their greatest hits, like Across The Universe! :)
Excellent piece of work!! Thank you very much for Sharing!!!!!
What a way of meeting people and get to see their talent. At first was reluctant being on youtube, but getting to do this has brought me into the houses of some very special people. You are one of them. Life; isn't it wonderful!!! Keep up the good work. Hope You Are Having A Splendid Day!!!!
ColdPlay is and will always be the best! Most of the songs they make relate to war, corruption in our government and other countries, love, and I believe that Violet Hill is about a person who got captured and was brought back to wherever as a slave, and he worked so hard in freezing weather in December while the masters sttod inside their housed nice and warm while he froze. The "slave" also watched how protest and corruption were a great ordeal in the government and churches back then. Amazing
I don't get why people say coldplay isn't "that good " I find them amazing . I really love their songs ,&if you don't like them ,then why are you listening to them? Just go find a life instead of commenting on here saying shit . &i am proud to say I LOVE COLDPLAY . ^o^ -thuumbsupp'man.
i think coldplay gets a bad rap for all the TRUE music fans out there cuz there actually played on shitty pop stations often but i mean alot of coldplay stuff is pretty good. no beatles or floyd of course but they arent that bad
Coldplay is good but they would never be the greatest. I mean I listen to them and I think they're cool but there are people wayyyy outta their league.
I think "Viva la Vida" is Coldplay's best album so far. At least the only one where Chris Martin is not trying to be Thom Yorke. "Violet Hill" lyrics and melody are particulary original.
''coldplay isnt that good.'' ''their only good song is viva la vida and that sounds like elevator music'' ''coldplay isnt worth their hype'' YEA STFU mainstream rap loving critics!
this is an amazing song...... im only a teen so you are probably like "this kid has no idea about anything about music......" well i dont listen to jonas brothers, hannah montana or any of that crap. thts not real music, the lyrics mean nothing, the songs are just for money. these lyrics mean somthing. viva la vida is a great album and this is my second favorite song behind viva la vida itself. all of the coldplay songs are awesome, cant wait till next album!!! clocks is a great song too.
@23dudehockey i agree that most of the disney channel stars' music is crap , but the music that they make and is not played on the disney channel is better than you might think.go figure :/
p.s. not a fan of hannah montanna or jonas brothers but i did some expirementing with artist whose music i that was bad
Coldplay got it bang on with the first 4 singles released from this album, VH, VLV, L, and LIJ, and a bonus to see LITII and SS released later, an album that lives on
@flowcology23 Maybe they are definitely one of the greatest. Forget what I said they are the greatest (lol). I just finished listening to "Viva La Vida" (lol).
Cant wait till they're concert in August. It's gonna be Awesome.
